Evidence
Google's May 19, 2026 I/O post listed 'Gemini Spark (AI Ultra $100 and $200; U.S. only)', and Gemini's release notes said it was rolling out 'in Beta to Google AI Ultra subscribers aged 18 and over in the United States'. On July 23, 2026 the Gemini app account on X posted: 'Gemini Spark is now also starting to roll out to Google AI Pro subscribers in the U.S., and we'll be bringing it to AI Pro subscribers in more countries soon.' The Gemini Apps limits page showed a checkmark for Google AI Pro in its Gemini Spark row on August 2, 2026, which it did not on July 15.
